Double value to round up in Java

I am getting float number as input and I want it to round to 2 digits after decimal point. i.e. for example if I get 18.965518 as input, I want it to be 18.97. How to do it?

wouldn't you want it to be 18.97? – Kaiser Wilhelm Sep 19 '11 at 14:32 — Kaiser Wilhelm, Sep 19 '11 at 14:32

DecimalFormat uses String (thus allocates additional memory), a big overhead compared to

(float)Math.round(value * 100) / 100

You can use the DecimalFormatobject, similar to regular Java.

Try

double roundTwoDecimals(double d)
{
    DecimalFormat twoDForm = new DecimalFormat("#.##");
    return Double.valueOf(twoDForm.format(d));
}
